After 1999 the 2.0 was not offered. This video is very similar to the 2.4, however, it covers everything on the 1999 Eclipse 2.0 timing belt replacement. The video was a little long so that I could cover everything. So I put it into a part 1 and part 2. Part 2 is much shorter. See also my other videos on this Eclipse. Replacing the thermostat, tie rod, radiator cap, etc. Please click on my name under the video for all my how-to videos. Please subscribe and click like. I got the videos out of order, I'm sorry please keep watching it does cover everything. Thanks for watching,,,,,Enjoy!!! - Авто та транспорт
Spent $200 on my timing kit (260hp 95 eagle talon) and this video is clear and could definitely teach anyone to do it
that is so true!!! thank you thank you
CameronGaming1st bullshit.i can't get the damn motor mount off the engine. There's no room unless I need to get everything else off first
Timing belt cover bolts wouldn’t come out. Even raising or lowering motor as much as could. Drilled two holes 5/8” with step down bit inside fender inline with bolts and wahlah. Great video. Short n sweet. Took me 12 hours under a shade tree.
You got that right cuz I'm experiencing the same problem and he did not show him removing the bolts in the video everything else was pretty much on point I've already drilled one hole and I'm about to start the next but I'm glad that you pointed that out, have a blessed day
Fantastic, fantastic video!! I just got a 1996 Eclipse that the owners just beat the hell out of, this is where I'm starting, timing belt, water pump, tensioner, then I'm going to the ignition, and get that bad boy running! Thank you for these videos!
you got it, thanks for watching. good luck with it !!!! enjoy
You can tell this is ACULLY a seasoned mechanic. Good vid
thank you for the great comment, and thanks for watching!!!!!
Seriously, man. You just freaking nailed this timing video. You've got some really impressive knowledge and skill.
pass it on, knowledge is only good if it is shared. tank you
This dude is a boss. Best video not only for an eclipse but to learn general mechanics
This has to be the best how to video on UA-cam. Straight to the point and didn’t talk in slowmo. Thanks for this🤘🏽
Thanks for the video very helpful. I have a 1997 mitubishi eclipse with same engine as in clip. After seeing this video it has inspired me to do it myself.
Uriel Cabrales did u figure it out or was it harder than it looks
I also have a 1997 with the same engine. This video really enlightened me!
This is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.
You explain things the way my brain understands them haha. Good video man.
thanks a bunch! and thank you for watching.
Any little tip is valuable🙏🙏
thank you SO MUCH for the vid PEACE
you got it, thanks again for watching both part 1 and 2. enjoy.
GREAT VIDEO!!!!!! very good explanation thank you
Hey this is a great video my only question is, how did you get the back part of the cover off to get to the water pump? I've got the belt off and everything else but I'm wondering how to get that cover forward enough to get to the bolts on the water pump, any help is really appreciated!
thank you! very good and informative video bout to go do mine right meow
Great video sir! It really help me!
+Pablo Santamaria great!!
Thank you!
thanks for watching
quality video & knowledge

Bro if u have any info on the camshaft sensor and crankshaft sensor it would be really appreciated!!!
One thing I would like to know, and I would like an answer if you care to answer is how did you get those two bolts out of the bottom of the motor mount plate off the timing belt cover without drilling two holes cuz that's the only way that these are coming out
I know it's been a while since you've done this video, but how in the hell do you get those two bolts off at the bottom of the motor mount on the timing cover
Hey, how do you fix a code p1390 timing belt skipped 1 tooth or more ?
great video do you have any video for head gasket change ???
I need that one too. I feel for you dude
@@zw474 been searching every too bro. i got a 97 eclipse gs. just said fuck it and i’m doing it all myself
@@deathcode8637 99 eclipse rs over here. Something that we can do. The neon srt4 is the same motor with the same wiring and ecu
Hey man love the video having to do the same to my talon, any chance I can get a list of tools used to do this?
What if your boyfriend, not knowinf any better took my in time cars timing belt off, when changing the water pump and moved the cams to meet each other with the belt off, is this fixable?
you should make a video that locates the range sensor.... or in other words neutral saftey switch
you got it, thanks for watching
Also you cannot access a bolt through the wheel well plug🤷♂️
I'm having trouble getting my bolts out for the timing cover! They won't line up with that hole in the wheel well and the engine won't go up or down enough to clear the walls! My next step is to pull the damn thing
You must remove the upper and lower motor mounts and use a jack to lower the engine and remove timing cover bolts. I have also pulled the bolts out as far as they can and removed timing cover with bolts still in the cover, but there is very little room to do it this way. thanks for watching.
You can take off the front Motor Mount & push the motor over,with 2 guys or a bottle jack, sideways,to get those long bolt's out.
How did you remove the power steering pump bracket and engine mount? I can’t get to those 14mm, the area is stupid tight.. I also had to pull the alternator belt along with the crank pully, couldn’t get the alternator to move or wiggle enough to reduce enough tension
questions did you have to remove the front motor mount? because there's alot of people having trouble taking one of the bolts from the passenger side motor mount.
Is it possible to do this without an engine hoist and removing the motor mount? Im trying not to break the bank to fix my belt problem. The belt popped.
yea , i do all the time. i still move the front mount, but a jack is fine.
Thanks so much for this video!. It would be even better if you include the footage of you taking it off then just speed up the playback for us laymen non mechanics. My car needs this done l, it pops air every so often and stutters.
+Jesus Garcia
it is zero tolerance valve, be careful starting it to much. you could cause more damage. thank you for the comment. good luck with the repair.
+Jesus Garcia
keep in mind there is a part two to this video. click on my name under the video to see it. thanks again.

sorry here is the link for part two

hey i was wondering how did you get the other top motor mount bolt out..the one that is closer to the alternator on the 1999 Mitsubishi eclipse?
My car was bought in shables
Do you know where I could possibly get new timing covers?
super hard to find for GS’s. they don’t manufacture anymore.
You shloudve shown how to take of pulleys and belt ????
Just curious, did you have to remove the complete power steering bracket? I've been literally following your video step by step to do my timing belt. Thanks in advance!
Tyquin Coleman , yes i did. thanks for watching.
I'm having same problem with timing cover bolts won't jack up high enough to get them out or lower enough either
two of them can stay in the cover when you remove it, just pull them out as far as you can, then pull up the cover.
:44 take the tentioner loose take the belt off then power steering pump off
what is that silver plate that attaches to the motor mount
the hole with the plug in the frame does not line up with either bolt to remove them.
let the jack down, or pump it up until it does. it will.
did mine but cams don't stay lined up and acts like flooded when I start it what
it sounds like the timing is off by one tooth, double check the timing marks
It's a little late but I see u still post vid. And I had a question on how to set the timing not on the bottom like what u did during this vid. But the top two that u said were already set, do I just spin them till there lined up or..? It would help me out Alot if I knew
yep spin the cams till there are lined up. thats all for them. they just spin the once, its the crank (below) that spins twice to the cams once. so you must have the botom set on top dead center. but the top ( cams ) just line them up. good question,,, thanks for watching.
If the timing belt snaps on this is it over
Just got a 98 Eclipse recently... after watching this, yeah, I think Im just going to sell the car.
no, piece of cake. you can do it. and the 98 is a sought after car. thanks for watching.
Quick question...do you believe a novice could pull this off on his own?
So if I needed to take the timing cover off, I would have to take the engine out??
no, there is room to remove it. thanks for watching.
Reason why I was asking, im trying to get the head off without removing the engine,
Hey Thomas, my balance shaft belt broke and I already removed the timing belt, if I turn the crank a full rotation will it damage anything? I don't think there is valve damage but I rushed the project and now i'm nervous to continue. The teeth appeared to be off on the crank side, I don't know if that was before I put this new engine in it. Please advise
yes the valves will spring closed
should i replace the oil pump while im at it?
its in the pan, and you wont be removing the pan for this job. that would be your call. if you think it needs it, or you have low oil pressure then sure. thanks for watching.
Same process for a turbo charged 1998 1.8L?
+Steph Urban
thats exactly true. i believe the review i wrote was for the 1.8 . its on my website at backyardmechanic.org let me look and see if thats the one im thinking of. if so it has step by step instructions with pics. thanks for watching. i will get back to you on that. thanks again.
I cant remove the two long bolts from the timing cover. they are too long between the frame and cover everything else is off I raised the engine up and down but they will not come out they are to long how do I remove them?????
jack the engine way up, or down. they will clear. good luck
thomas brian do I have to losen up any other mounts? it seems the motor will only go up so far with just the motor mount off as your video showed. I'll try again
you should be able to remove them, i remember it was difficult, but they do come out.
when you are turning to line up the bottom mark are you turning it clockwise or counter clock wise?
crank? it does not matter, i turn clock wise. thanks for watching.
always seems best to turn in the same direction as the rotation of the engine, in this case clock wise. but if you are referring to the crank, its ok. the cam you for sure want to turn in the same as rotation of the engine. thanks again.
+thomas brian do i just turn the cams with a socket? sorry I'm a rookie and I don't want to mess up lol
yes thats correct,
turn the nut that holds the sprocket on, turning clock wise is always best so you do not make the cam bolt loose. you can do this !!!
How do I move the cams in the timing I’m trying to time my neck to 97 nonturbo eagle talon 420a engine
the cam marks should face each other, the crank should be at about the 1 o clock position ( see mark ) number one piston on tdc ( top dead center when crank is in that position. ( verify tdc because you dont want to be 180 degrees out. then put the timing belt on.
qqueestion how do you get the vensioner off?
bolt right in the center. thx for watching
how can i find 95 talon air intake?
